The link to "Ohh...Alright..." in the table "Roy Lichtenstein sales records" is broken. The actual page is here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ohhh...Alright...

Allegations of copying/theft

[edit]

Quite a bit of media is publishing criticism of Lichtenstein and his “appropriation” of comic images for his art. I believe it’s valid enough to be mentioned in the article, but not sure if a separate “Controversies” section would be too much? https://www.theguardian.com/artanddesign/2023/apr/09/new-allegations-of-plagiarism-against-roy-lichtensteinChimino (talk) 21:32, 9 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

"Controversies" sections are discouraged by wikipedia style guides. My feeling is that we should wait to see if anything comes of these legal issues before adding anything to avoid to much rumour and back-and-forth in the text. Ashmoo (talk) 14:01, 11 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
As far as I can tell, the issues are moral/ethical rather than legal. There is a documentary film on this and articles in the Washington Post and numerous art and comic sites in addition to the Guardian linked above. Here's one example, with a podcast on the topic: https://news.artnet.com/multimedia/the-art-angle-podcast-how-roy-lichtenstein-became-a-super-villain-to-comic-book-artists-2284371
In my view, the arguments are misguided and often peppered with misinformation. but there is enough of this coverage that it will attract readers here in search of more info. This probably should be addressed in the article somehow. BTfromLA (talk) 03:17, 16 April 2023 (UTC)
